@jackiegardina Recall last month during national wetlands month, the #corrupt #SCOTUS gutted EPA protection for our wetlands. Allowing corporations to pollute and contaminate our wetlands and thus destroying our safe water supply.

This is how #fascist do it, with exceptional cruelty.

It is ironic that during the last days of Pride Month, #SCOTUS decides that the First Amendment allows businesses to discriminate against #LGBTQ individuals.

Three young adults were at the beach yesterday. It was the first time they had seen the ocean. They had driven from Arizona. Why? Because CA has Planned Parenthood and access to reproductive healthcare.

They were just glad they had the means to get here.

@NurseStacey Women! Recognize that the only person who has a right to your body or biological functions is you! No other person or state has the right to infringe on your physical sovereignty. To not recognize and defend this sovereignty is to be yoked.
Female humans are due the same rights to #autonomy and #selfdetetmination as males.

Republicans always stick by their first choice, Trump, Kavanaugh, McCarthy, no matter how shitty or craven and are willing to concede everything for them. There's no moral low they wont hit or compromise they're unwilling to make for whoever they've gotten behind.
